³¹ Anuttapta, a lake in the Himavat mountain, is surrounded by Sudarśanakūṭa, Citrakūṭa, Kālakūṭa, Gandhamādana and Kailāsa. The name of the lake reminds us of that of the Anutaptā-nadī in the Plakṣa-dvīpa to be mentioned below. Those who bathed in the lake dried and robed themselves at Manaḥśilātala which has the Kāñcana-guhā and the Kāla-parvata respectively above and below it.
